Former media aide to ex-President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan, Reno Omokri, has said that despite the fact that former President Muhammadu Buhari spent eight good years in power, he couldn’t fix any of Nigeria’s refineries, and yet, former Kaduna governor, El-Rufai was singing praises of him.
Omokri took to his official X handle to make this known.
Omokri stated,”For eight years that Buhari was in office, he could not get the Port Harcourt and Warri Refineries working, yet el-Rufai was singing his praises all that time.
“And now that President Tinubu has gotten both the Port Harcourt and Warri refineries working in just a year, el-Rufai attacks him and accuses him of Yorubanisation of NNPC?
“First of all, that accusation is blatantly false. It is the same lies that el-Rufai used to turn the North against former President Jonathan. In reality, the South-South dominates in the NNPC board and Petroleum Ministry, followed by the Northwest.
“But, let us even agree with el-Rufai and say that it is true for the sake of argument. If Yorubanisation can bring dead refineries back to life, then there should be more Yorubanisation!
“Gone are the days of fuel scarcity. We now have the product in abundance and are even exporting to Europe and the Middle East. I like that type of Yorubanisation.”
